Hallway, bathroom, and laudry room wall.

The Holiday Season is over which means Construction Season begins.  This weekend I worked my butt off in the basement.  I logged a total of 17 hours on Saturday and Sunday. Working alone is slow but it is also therapeutic as long as I do my research and get all of my ducks in a row before I start working.

If you recall, I put up a soffit a little too soon so I had to rip it down.  If you also recall, my last blog talked about how I installed the ducts, so I was able to spend the morning on Saturday putting that soffit back together.  It's surprising how easy it was after having done it once before. :)

Most of what I did on Saturday afternoon,  Saturday
Evening, and Sunday morning was framing the rest of
the basement and I pretty much covered that in previous
entries.  What I didn't anticipate was having to go back
through the basement and place nailer boards on almost
every wall and the soffits for future drywall.  Thanks to my Brother-in-law Dan for the advice over the phone.  So for 4 hours, I did that.  There is a little more framing to do like the bathroom closet, the rough in for the shower, and a couple of more soffits in the bedrooms.

If there is one negative about this weekend was that I have discovered that the laundry isn't quite as big as I thought is was but after talking to my awesome wife, she  is fine with the size.  Another negative was that I didn't get to spend much time with my family.  

It is now time to relax and watch the Super Bowl.  The next time I write I hope to be covering either plumbing or electrical.
